Cucumber Lemonade
Zubaida Isah @cook_12729830
Cucumbers are low in calories but contain high content of vitamins and minerals, like vitamin C, Vitamin K, potassium and magnesium.
Due to their high water content, eating cucumbers lead to balanced hydration.
So, I as a nutritionist would recommend that taking any kind of natural cucumber juices could be suitable for summer.
Cucumber lemonade is refreshing, delicious, easy to make and suitable for this weather.
